🔍 EARLY FIND
It all starts with a picture that looks ordinary: a 14×14 grid of black, white, blue, and yellow squares. Its title: GSMG.IO 5 BTC Puzzle Challenge.

UNSOLVED
Below it, a Bitcoin address: 1GSMG1JC9wtdSwfwApgj2xcmJPAwx7prBe
I checked it directly on a blockchain explorer. My heart was beating a little faster — this isn’t fiction. The balance at that address is real: 1.25634510 BTC, about $79,000. It has been transacted 125 times since 2019. Real money, locked behind mathematics, waiting for anyone smart enough — or crazy enough — to crack it open.
